The study of random growth models began in probability theory about 50 years ago, and today this area occupies a central place in the subject. The considerable challenges posed by these models have spurred the development of innovative probability theory and opened up connections with several other parts of mathematics, such as partial ......
The title Random Explorations has two meanings. First, a few topics of advanced probability are deeply explored. Second, there is a recurring theme of analyzing a random object by exploring a random path. This book is an outgrowth of lectures by the author in the University of Chicago Research Experiences for Undergraduate (REU) program in 2020. ......
Let $p$ be a prime and$S$ a finite $p$-group. A $p$-fusion system on $S$ is a category whose objects are the subgroups of $S$ and whose morphisms are certain injective group homomorphisms. Fusion systems are of interest in modular representation theory, algebraic topology, and local finite group theory. The book provides a characterization of the ......
We consider the gravity water waves system with a periodic one-dimensional interface in infinite depth and we establish the existence and the linear stability of small amplitude, quasi-periodic in time, traveling waves. This provides the first existence result of quasi-periodic water waves solutions bifurcating from a completely resonant elliptic ......
This book presents the basics of quantum computing and quantum information theory. It emphasizes the mathematical aspects and the historical continuity of both algorithms and information theory when passing from classical to quantum settings. The book begins with several classical algorithms relevant for quantum computing and of interest in their ......

This set includes two humorous and quirky collections of mathematical morsels by Burkard Polster (YouTube's Mathologer) and Marty Ross-Putting Two and Two Together: Selections from the Mathologer Files and A Dingo Ate My Math Book: Mathematics from Down Under. The stories in both volumes were written for a general audience and cover current ......
Putting Two and Two Together is a humorous and quirky collection of unusual, ingenious, and beautiful morsels of mathematics. Authors Burkard Polster (YouTube's Mathologer) and Marty Ross delve into mathematical puzzles and phenomena in engaging stories featuring current events, sports, and history, many flavored with a distinctive bit of ......
Leclerc and Zelevinsky, motivated by the study of quasi-commuting quantum flag minors, introduced the notions of strongly separated and weakly separated collections. These notions are closely related to the theory of cluster algebras, to the combinatorics of the double Bruhat cells, and to the totally positive Grassmannian. A key feature, called ......
